Question:
Is minor shirk (associating partners with Allah) a nullifier of all deeds, or only the deed in which it is mixed?
Answer:
Minor shirk (associating partners with Allah) nullifies the deed in which it occurs, such as riya' (showing off) and sum'ah (seeking fame), which nullify the deed in which they occur. As for the remaining deeds that contain no riya' or sum'ah, they are valid. What nullifies all deeds is major shirk, may Allah protect us from it.
